WE ABE ALL INTERESTED.
It may seem like impertinence for
persons who are not engaged in
farming to be advising farmers what
to do, and perhaps some tarmers so
regard it, but where the general pros-
" perity is as much dependent upon
the prosperity of the farmer as it is
in the South, every; one is more or
less interested in what the farmer
does, so that the opinions expressed
as to the course that farmers should
pursue, or the advice offered, is not
altogether impertinent, r j
Cotton is and will continue to be
the staple crop of the South. There
are millions -of people dependent
upon H. directly or -indirectly. The
crops have for years been constantly
increasing, and as they have in
creased the prices have decreased,
until they have reached a figure that
does not cover the: cost of cultiva
tion, so that the average planter
finds himself worse-off after his crop
is marketed than he was before it
was planted. The only cotton -grower
in the South who could stand
this without being ruined is the one
who raised his own supplies and
could get along without cotton, and
he could do it only by making other
crops carry bis cotton through.
With the increase of production
and the corresponding decrease in
price it soon became apparent j that
something must be done to save the
planters from the ruin which! was
inevttable if something was not done,
The only remedy in sight seemed to
be a reduction of acreage so as to
bring the crop . somewhere within
the world's demand; but it took a
great deal of talking and ot writing,
and of urging by conventions of
planters and others ; to get planters
to coasider this, and with all the
talking and writing ; and resolutions
no concerted action has yet been
taken in that direction, and yet as
sure as the sun's heat melts snow so
sure will the price of cotton go under
five cents next Fall if the ;crop
planted this year be anything like as
large as the crop of last year was. A
reduction of the acreage, and a ma
terial reduction, too, is not a matter
of choice with the planters but a
matter of absolute necessity unless
they want to make cotton just to
keep themselves employed, regard
less of whether they come out at the
big end or the little end of the born.
The Stab was one of the first pa
pers in the South to advocate a re
ductioa of the cotton acreage and di
versified farming, and did sol long
before cottou touched five cents a
pound. We have believed and held,
and still believe and hold that diver
sified farming is the true policy for
the Southern farmer, regardless of
the price of cotton, whether it be
five or ten cents a pound, for no ag
ricultural country can be permanent-,
ry prosperous while jit is dependent
upon one crop, no matter what that
crop may be. . It it could be, the
South would have gotten rich on cot
ton long ago, for she has been the
cotton grower for the world, is yet
mainly so, and could if she would, if
her planters acted wisely and in con
cert, control the market. But this
can never be done while every planter
acts for himself and plants blindly
without any regard to how others are
planting, or to the world's demand
and the world's supply, r ; - -
We have said in these columns
and we repeat it, that it would be a
blessing to the South if not a pound
of cotton seed were planted for one or
two years or if one or two crops were
blighted and not a pound "harvested.
It might look like a temporary afflic
tion, but it would be a blessing and
again continue a blessing until folly
had increased -the crop to exceed
the world's'demand.' it j '
We v have - just - read - a . forcible
articled th& authorship : of whicbl we
do not know, but it is some one who
has made a study bf - the-cotton
situation and is" familiaftwlth;it,in
which the writer takes the" position
that instead of reducing the acreage
twenty five per cent7 as has' been re-
commended, (bat which is very im
probable,, to say the - least) f there
should be a redaction of seventy-five
nr eent Dlaniiofir the land taken
f W - w.x..,
from cotton ia something else, or
even letting it , ran fallow, which
would be better than putting it in
cotton: He contends that a redac
tion of. ' seventy-five per cent, in the
nextHcrop 6 would so e reduce the
world's supply itbat ten or eleven
cents a pound at New York for the
next four or five years could be as
sured. , 1 ,s . .
The idea has gone . abroad, be
says, that because in some limited
sections cotton can be grown for less
than five cents a pound that there
fore a large crop will be planted to
be added to the surplus that may
remain over from this crop, and for
this reason - cotton speculators are
already fixing the price of the next
crop at a less figure than they are
paying now, and figures at whicn
not one. planter in a hundred can sell
without incurring a loss on the cost
of production. )
With such a idisease there must
be a heroic remedy, no ordinary re
duction of acreage, no trifling reduc
tion, but a heroic one which will cut
down the supply pd make the buyer
hunt the cotton and doff, his bat to
it instead of the cotton, hunting the
buyer and begging to be taken in at
do so and stick to the resolve. A
twenty five per cent, reduction wou'd
help, fifty would be better and sev
enty five still better. But will they?
That's the auesiion. which will be
answered when planting time comes.
MINOR MENTION.
Senator Sherman has the reputa
tion, in his own party, at least, of be
ing a great financier, a reputation he
has achieved by hanging back until
everybody else had moved, then ap-
nronriatin? the ideas of others and
getting credit for their suggestions
and plans. He has done this several
times since the present financial dis
cussion in Congress began,-during
which he has Originated nothing. He
did it Wednesday when he presented
a bill which was simply a rehash of a
half-dozen bills which bad been pre
viously presented by others in the
House and Senate. 1 bis one was a
dovetail of the bill recommended by
the House Committee on Ways
and "Means -and the substitute
for the -Springer bill which was
offered some time, ago in the House
by Mr. T. B. Reed. It provides for
issuing gold bonds and also for issu
ing certificates of indebtedness to
meet deficiencies in the Treasury.
As neither of these propositions
could pass separately there is not
much probability of their passing
jointly, and little prospect of Mr.
Sherman adding to his laurels as a
"great financier." As we under
stand the controversy it is not a mat
ter of paying or saving interest at
all. It is simply regarded by those
who oppose the gold bond issue as a
question as to whether the Govern-
ment shall commit itself absolutely
to gold payments, when it has been
paying gold and it Is generally on
derstood that it will continue to pay
in gold.
St
Oae of the impediments that has
existed in the way of extensive hog
raising in the South has been the
need of a home market to dispose of
them. Those that have been ship
ped from the South 'have been ship
ped alive, no attempt having been
made until recently to erect slaugh
tering establishments. I A year or so
ago we saw the announcement that
a slaughter house was to be started
at uennison, lexas, where it was
proposed to handle large numbers of
cattle and hogs. ; Another was an
nounced to be started " at Chatta
nooga, Tennessee, by a pork-packing
firm in Chicago, but whether these
were established or not we do not
know. The latest is the or
ganizauon ot a company .to
put up an establisment at Val-
dosta, tia., : and this seems to be
assured as it is stated that contracts
have been made with the farmers in
the neighborhood for the delivery of
3,000 hogs next winter, for which
they are to be paid 3 cents a pound,
This is not a very large number but
it will do for a starter, and it will
also demonstrate the practicability
of packing pork in the South, and
correct tne prevailing . impression
that it cannot be successfully done,
If it succeeds at Valdosta, as it un
doubtedly will, it will not be long
Deiore similar establishments will be
put up at other points, and our far
mers will find a home market for all
the hogs they may raise.

THE WIFE OF MASCAdNI.
Story of the Or lain of the .Famous Opera,
"Cavallerla Sosttcsna."
All the world now knows the story of
Cavalleria Rusticana'.' how it was
submitted to a musical friend, who
promptly pronounced it rubbish;" how
Mascagni despondently entered it in the
competition far the prize of 2,000 francs
($400) offered by the musical publishers
of Milan; how he accepted the prize as
a windfall beyond the wildest hopes of
a man who, with wife and two children,
was existing on 2) francs a day, writes
Olive May Eager in an interesting
sketch of the, wife of the famous Italian
composer in The Ladies Homq Journal.
The rabsequent furore in Rome was a.
revelation, and in answer to a telegram
he harried to the capital in his usual
negligee in fact, his only dress the-
clumsy handiwork of . a village tailor.
Apparently a simple, countrifiedoung
fellow, he appeared on the stagentefore
that . immense and enthusiastio audi
ence, which ; cheered him all the more
that he was awkward, bewildered, even
stupefied, at the reception. The transi
tion was too great, and be felt bis brain
reel. Sympathizing, admiring faces
crowded about him, but something of
his everyday life, something morejwst
ful, he must have, and that Bpeedily.
Rushing borne after the performance, he
telegraphed for his wife, and also dis
patched an incoherent letter imploring
her to pick up the children and come to
bis aid without delay. '
She came at once a plain, quiet
body, who, during those tedious years
of seclusion and hardship, bad deterior
ated in appearance and ld lost the
worldly veneering of her younger days.
but nevertheless a true hearted helpmeet
for an agitated, fame stricken man.
That night she sat in a private box, lis
tening to the wonderful strains and still
more .-wonderful enthusiasm, weeping
tears of joy throughout the performance
and clapping wildly with the rest upon
the appearance of the new genius.

It is to be presumed that he had usu

man, who had already heard the speech
more than once, stole a march upon the

and I'll take your picture. You needn't
pay me with money. What can you do?"
' "Say. Mr. Coitiss, I kin do anythin.
I'm a wise kid. Dey ain't no flies on
ma" : ' . ;.
He was lifted into a chair, and hia
feet didn't come within a foot of the
floor. He was trembling with excite
merit, and his teeth glistened in a line of
white against bis dirty face. After the
shutter clicked and he was'told it was
"all over" he laughed and said: . "Huh,,
dat ain't nuttin. I cud do dat meself,
Mr. Coitiss."
He was put to work cleaning the'
globes on the chandeliers to pay for his
pictures, and during the afternoon dis
appeared. About 6 o'clock he came back
and said: "I had ter go after me 8
o'clocks. Here's a poipy I saved fer
you, Mr. Coitiss." And be drew a
rumpled dirty paper from under his
coat.
When the pictures were finished and
banded to him, he said: "Hully geel
Ain't dat outer sight? Won't de old lady
be proud uv her Cholly boy wen she gits
dia? Say, Mr. Coitiss, me, mudder 's a
good old lady, and she's got six more
kids- ter wash fer, so I fought I'd
skip."
One of the pictures was mailed to "de
good old mudder'! in Cleveland, and the
boy had one for himself. He looked at
it admiringly for a moment and then
said: 'Say! Won't dis kill de kids at
de Junction dead when" I show it to
'em? Aw, say I Phorograffed by Coitiss.
Where's me chrysanthemurn, Cholly?"
and he strutted on L Kan gas City Star.
SwttscTUnd Modem BabeL
- Switzerland, with its mixture of races
and tongues, is a sort of modern Babel,
a fact which causes much trouble in
particular to the military authorities.
At Wallenstadt, the other, day, at the
recruiting station, there was a guard
composed of five men. The chief was a
lieutenant who spoke German only, the
second a sergeant who spoke Italian
only, the third a - corporal who could
speak French and Spanish, the fourth a
private who could speak French and
German, and the fifth a private who
could speak French and Italian. When
the lieutenant had to transmit an order
to the sergeant, he had to get tho last
named man to interpret for him. When
he wanted to communicate with the
corporal, he bad to requisition the fourth
man, and 10 09, great delay and confu
sion being thus occasioned. London

Betrayed by a Pin.
jno matter how masculine a woman
may become, there is always some little
womanly weakness about her that inva
riably betrays her. She may wear real
men a shoes and tie her own tie, but her
manny hat has a hatpin through it Her
coat may be made by a real tailor, but
it is tight at the waist. She Is still and
always the woman. Now, for example,
in Tim Murphy's play, "Alimony,"
there was one 01 the dapperest young
things yon evr saw. She was a real lit
tle gentleman, from the crown of her
billycock hat to the sole bf her hunting
boots. Her corduroys were real cordu
roys, and her shirt had link sleeve but
tons, ous sne naa ner nign noots pmnea
up with safety pins.. She did,: and I saw
them. . Wasn't that the woman of it?

"Of course it doesn't" insisted tho

' Seedless Fruit and Vegetables.
Writers often express" wonder that
any fruit cr vegetable should be found
without seeds, the acme of surprise
seeming to be with respect to the. seed
less orange. The fact of the case is that
such examples are met with' in almost
every variety of fruits and in several
kinds of vegetables. An instance which
can; be cited in the apple is Mennecher's
Nocore, so named because of both "core"
and seed pits being entirely absent
The Rutter pear is a so called seed
less variety of that species of fruit hut
I believe that abortive seeds are occa-'
Sionally found in isolated specimens.
The "zante," or seedless currant of the
grocery stores, is not! a currant at all,
but a small species of seedless grape.
